Thanks guys I plan on buying one once I get paid. I use to be fine on the highway with the same setup. I'm sure the converter is locking which I find weird because I thought more heat would be generated when it's slipping around town. There's also less airflow than when it's locked doing...

No tranny cooler. But I was under the assumption most of the heat produced by the converter would be when it's slipping during stop and go. In fourth at 70+ it's locked. I thought the heat would be the opposite?

Hey guys. My coolant system is relatively new but on the drive to work the cars thermostat starts to climb as I go over 70mph. I burped the car yesterday and just went for a test drive but it's still happening. The car runs I believe 2500 rpm @ 75 in forth but I can run the same rpm around 50...

would you lower the price if traded 10 spokes with 235 nittos?

Yup, so i never REALLY got it fixed. But... Its rewired now straight to the battery, and has a seperate thermostat in a hose. The fans on high now whenever it comes on, and stays on while the car is at temperature the whole time (highway or not). It works though. :D

No i haven't, the cars stuck 3 hours south I'll have to go back next weekend. Could the clutch slowly disarrange itself over time and need to be re-adjusted?

the clutch is not engaging atall. Im pretty sure the clutch itself is fine. Could low freon levels cause it too?

ha nope. i feel dumb :o Still stuck though because now i don't know what to change, i have to go back down south and check the fuses :rolleyes: Is there anything else that it could be besides fuses and VLCM?

Alright cool. Does anyone know if there's a relay that controls both the A/C clutch and the fan then? How do i check relays? :o

No F7LF-14B239-AB Edit googling this part number comes up 98 but its date stamped 22 Aug 1996 on the sticker. The stamp on the VLCM that i pulled off my 98 read year 1998?

Its ok, I don't want you to be under the impression I'm raving mad or anything. I mean it stinks that i still have no car but mix ups happen. I'll call tomorrow. Sorry about your friend.. :frown:

Yes, i called the phone number at the bottom of your profile 727-789-6474 unless its a new business now :o the guy that I spoke with was Peter Leveielle. *edit* (I think it was Peter, thats who the check was made out to) Could i exchange it for a 98? I asked him a couple of times if a 96...

I have no idea. I was hoping one of you guys would know. The guy i ordered it from told me it would work on my 98, I have no clue though.. Put it in and still doesn't work Do any of you know off hand where the relay is located?

I've been without a car for about a month now trying to figure out what's been wrong with it. I was having problems with the car over heating, it turns out the fan was only working sometimes before it completely died. Found out my A/C clutch was not engaging also, and read the two parts were...

Im in need of the aluminum housing for our thermostat (1998 mk8). Maybe one of you guys has one laying around? :o
